Phil Spector

Music mogul Phil Spector’s wife Rachelle has won her bid to halt her husband's transfer to a medium security facility in Coalinga, California - insisting she fears the producer would die there.

Officials had planned to move Spector, who is serving 19 years to life for the murder of actress Lana Clarkson, from the state's notorious Corcoran prison to the Pleasant Valley State Prison to make way for convicts requiring mental health treatment.

But wife Rachelle objected, claiming Pleasant Valley has a history of outbreaks of a potentially deadly disease, known as Valley Fever.
